I bought Nokia E63 Black for my friend who is in Mumbai. As you may be knowing that Maharashtra has 8% more VAT than other states on mobile, may be on other electronics items also. So It does make difference of Rs. 600-800 difference to price of mobiles @10k
E63 is fantastic device for its price, 10.8K. Its cheaper version of E71 sans Metal body, GPS, 2 MP cam Vs 3.2 MP.
But by no means its inferior to high end E71, build quality is good, QWERTY is nice to start typing like PC and 3.5mm audio jack comes as positive. It even has flash light shortcut key which is not there in E71. Messaging experience is top class as expected from Eseries.
I was able to setup my Gmail, OVI & hotmail accounts in Nokia Messaging without any issue. Same way I was easily able to configure my Mail for Exchange account within few minutes.
Camera is decent and other extra applications are nice. I also got 50 songs voucher from Nokia Music Store which can be redeemed via Nokia Music( OVI player) application. I bought this E63 for my friend to whom its first smartphone, his earlier phone was Nokia 3110 classic. I have been helping him to learn about new phone, services and get best out of E63. Here are some photos of E63.
Anyone of you have used E63? and if yes how is your experience? please drop in with your comments.
